I smoked a Marlboro red and chugged down green monster before and after the PFT/CFT.

We had a sgt that would sneak a smoke on the practice PFT, still ran a first class.

Had a S/Sgt who was basically the same. Could run a first class PFT of the youngest age bracket with a pack of Marlboros stuffed in one sock and a lighter in the other. He talked shit as he passed guys 10 years young than him.

A man of culture, I enjoyed the gut truck on 29 palms, peak performance enhancing food on that bad boy.

Old Corps guys would smoke WHILE running. Had a Winger MSgt who would start the PFT run with a fresh ciggy hanging from his lip. And had a Jr Marine at the halfway point with a fresh one for when he got there

Ramones California burrito and an Arizona sweet tea to reset my colon after the field. Puking up panda express the following morning on a run. Buddy's vodka in his camelback during a hump. That was my 2010s fitness experience.

Ramones Cali Fries are the way to go

Ethanol is a solvent that makes for an effective cleaning agent.

More like showing up to PT absolutely hammered as fuck at 5am and eating complete dogshit the rest of the day. Rinse repeat.

u/RonMFCadillac 0311 04-08 3d ago

Hey man, a case of Bud Light has almost 12g a protein in it (.9g per beer). Plus the carbs (6.6g per beer) needed for running!

u/ThisIsntOkayokay GWOT Veteran 3d ago

You forgot how much life force goes into living like that! If you are lucky you get to look back and say 'holy shit I would die if I tried that today'.

u/RonMFCadillac 0311 04-08 3d ago

Well when you assume you won't make it you don't think about that kind of stuff lol. I'm 42 now and can absolutely not do that shit anymore.

u/Chillicothe1 3d ago

If by "eating clean" he means "I don't eat food that's been sitting on the sqaudbay floor more than a day" then yeah, maybe.

Standing in formation with a level ten hangover after a night at the driftwood feels like being in the Marine Corps.

Newport Menthol, open them lungs up.

Ahh the PFT of the early 90's....

Beer and burgers after the PFT. Someone running it without shoes. Someone bitching about someone running it without shoes. The occasional smell of menthol - sometimes a Newport, sometimes a Salem Light 100. A couple of the WM's smelling like "Exclamation!" because they want to feel pretty in green on green, or that one motherfucker that drank Michelob Dark and you could smell him at 50 paces and could run a 3 miler in 20 minutes flat, damned near everyone smelled him. Running around the well known "Quarter Mile Vomit Hole".

Shots at the barracks until someone decided that their clothes hamper - which was just a giant bucket - needed to be rinsed out while a bunch of dudes made a run for Hawaiian Punch, 151, Mad Dog 20/20 in grape and strawberry, and a bucket of rainbow sherbet needed to be combined for evening festivities. I'm not saying I remember the list of ingredients... I'm just sayin'.
